Tools

Tools that do one job, without an account.

A date-based release countdown with a calendar file, the official demo-save backup checklist, and a manual tracker for the 25-skill Early Access roster.

Design rule

No fake precision. No save-file reading. No account.

If a tool needs data the developer has not published, it does not ship.

01 / DATE Release countdown & calendar Counts calendar days to November 17, 2026 without inventing a launch hour. Includes an all-day .ics file and a Google Calendar link. Open countdown → 02 / SAVE Demo save backup checklist Eight steps based on the developer's save-string instructions, with browser-local checkboxes, a progress bar and a print view. Open checklist → 03 / PLAN Early Access skill tracker Enter levels for the 25 launch skills and see tracked coverage. Manual only — no save-file access and no invented XP curve. Open tracker →

How these tools work

The countdown is a small client-side script that compares today's local calendar date with November 17, 2026. It does not guess an unlock hour, because Steam has not published one. The calendar file is an all-day event for the same reason.

The save checklist and skill tracker store their state in your browser's localStorage. Nothing is sent to a server, and no account is required. The skill tracker does not read a Melvor Idle 2 save file; you enter the levels yourself.

What they deliberately do not do

No XP-per-hour calculator: the Melvor Idle 2 XP curve has not been published.
No “best build” or “best skill” ranking: the launch build is not public and balance is still changing.
No save-file import: we do not know the launch save format, and guessing could corrupt a character.
No account, email capture or analytics profile.

Local-only note

Clearing your browser data or using a different device will reset the checklist and tracker. Use the print view if you want a durable copy of the save steps.
